"Roger and his partner John are a tremendous team! Roger is the painting expert, while John is the carpenter, though they each have varied skills to assist each other. Their skill level was impressive, and Roger's pricing was very fair and affordable. They were on-time every day, and were friendly and courteous._____ I purchased an 8 ft. Harvey vinyl patio door years ago, but it sat in the garage for years. Sight unseen, they unpackaged the door pieces and installed the patio door as if it were second nature to them. The door was shorter and narrower than the old one they removed, but John filled the gaps and finished the trim to make it look like it was a perfect fit!_____ Roger's skill at fixing many seam cracks in the walls & ceiling of our family room was amazing. John was also tasked with installing sills and molding for two windows, which looked perfect after he was finished! Then Roger went to work painting all the trim, some previously stained, and the walls. He primed all the trim before painting them with two coats. He also applied two coats to the walls, blending all rolled sections so no lines were visible. From all angles the walls look excellent!_____ When the work was done they cleaned up after themselves, removed all waste and brought it to the curb for a trash pick-up. Later, a dear friend of ours came over to see the renovated room and was very impressed, saying that she might be calling Roger for some work at her own house. That's saying a lot because she's a stickler for details._____ I can honestly recommend Rogers Top Notch Painting very highly for friendliness, punctuality, quality, affordability and attention to detail. They will definitely be hired to do more work for us in the future!"

"In painting the condo all areas were completed to my satisfaction, however there were gaps in communication between Robert and myself. The paint crew seemed rushed which resulted in some areas not being properly masked off and paint spray remained. I found after their cleanup, plastic and tape remained on some surfaces and fixtures. In dealing with this contractor I would suggest getting each room documented regarding the type of work, type of paint, and cleanup. I received the level of service I paid for."

"I always do my own painting, I've never hired a painter before. But I was putting off doing our master bedroom because it has huge cathedral ceilings and I didn't have the equipment to do those. Used Angie's List and got the name of Franklin Painting and called him for an estimate. Our bedroom is 16 ft x 21 ft - quite large. He gave me an estimate of $200 for the ceiling which I accepted, it came out great! So I got an estimate for the walls ($250) and trim (4 windows, a door, baseboard). He and his wife (a lovely woman, I liked her) came yesterday and did the painting. Again, a fabulous job. Quite impressed! Couldn't beat the price either. Hard-working, neat, arrived on time, did an excellent job. Highly recommended.

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home’s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.

Many peel-and-stick wallpapers aren’t moisture-resistant, so if you install them in high-humidity rooms, mold can grow behind the wallpaper. It’s best to reserve peel-and-stick wallpaper for bedrooms, living rooms, and other rooms with lower humidity levels. Not only does this minimize the risk of mold growth, but it also keeps the wallpaper from bubbling or peeling.

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.

To remove pre-pasted wallpaper, you’ll need to wet the wallpaper or steam it to loosen the paste on the back of the wallpaper. Spray the paper with water, then let it soak for 10 to 20 minutes. From there, you should be able to peel off the wallpaper. Then, you may need to follow up with a cleaning solution and a scraper to remove any remaining wallpaper paste on the walls.

White walls are considered a classic and timeless look and will most likely always be in style. A white wall easily blends into any type of home decor style which makes it a suitable option for most homeowners. Another appealing quality about white walls is that if it's not a color someone is going for, the color is easy to paint over.
